Podcast appearances and mentions of Kirk Jones

Herbstreuth, Mike www.deutschlandfunk.de, Corso

Die neue Podcast-Folge ist online: Diesmal geht es um aktuelle Kino- und Streaming-Highlights. Im Fokus stehen das britische Biopic-Drama Verflucht Normal (Originaltitel: I Swear) von Kirk Jones, das Historiendrama Nürnberg von James Vanderbilt mit Russell Crowe und Rami Malek, das Disney+ Special The Punisher: One Last Kill sowie die neue Netflix-Animation Swapped – Getauscht.

Hosted by Andrew Quinn and Darren Mooney, this week with special guests Ciara Moloney and Dean Buckley, The 250 is a (mostly) weekly trip through some of the best (and worst) movies ever made, as voted for by Internet Movie Database Users. New episodes are released every second Saturday at 6pm GMT, with the occasional bonus episode between them. This week, Kirk Jones' I Swear. John Davidson is a seemingly ordinary young child with a bright future ahead of him; his friends like him, he does well at school, he even has potential at soccer. However, he suddenly starts developing tics and uncontrollable verbalisations. John is diagnosed with Tourette Syndrome, and discovers that his life is not going to unfold in the way that he might have originally hoped. At time of recording, it was ranked 130th on the list of the best movies of all time on the Internet Movie Database.

In der aktuellen Podcast-Episode dreht sich alles um zwei Kinofilme, die 2026 auf sehr unterschiedliche Weise im Gedächtnis bleiben könnten: Der Horror-Thriller „Obsession – Du sollst mich lieben“ von Curry Barker und das britische Biopic „Verflucht normal“ (Originaltitel: „I Swear“) von Kirk Jones mit Robert Aramayo in der Hauptrolle. „Obsession – Du sollst mich lieben“ startet am 25.06.2026 in den deutschen Kinos und setzt auf psychologischen Horror, der aus einer scheinbar einfachen Idee entsteht: Ein junger Mann wünscht sich, dass sein Schwarm ihn über alles liebt – und genau dieser Wunsch kippt in Kontrolle, Abhängigkeit und Bedrohung. In der Episode sprechen wir darüber, warum das „Be careful what you wish for“-Motiv hier besonders effektiv wirkt, wie der Film Beziehungshorror und Mystery verbindet und was ihn für Fans moderner Genre-Thriller interessant macht. Außerdem schauen wir auf Besetzung und Inszenierung: Curry Barker führt Regie, während Michael Johnston und Inde Navarrette die zentralen Rollen tragen. Mit „Verflucht normal“ kommt ab 28.05.2026 ein Film ins Kino, der auf dem Leben von John Davidson basiert und die Herausforderungen des Tourette-Syndroms über Jugend und frühes Erwachsenenalter hinweg erzählt. Regie und Drehbuch stammen von Kirk Jones. In der Hauptrolle spielt Robert Aramayo, flankiert unter anderem von Maxine Peake und Peter Mullan. Der Film mischt Biografie, Drama und komödiantische Wärme und zeigt, wie Unverständnis, Ausgrenzung und falsche Zuschreibungen das Leben prägen können – und wie Begegnungen mit Menschen, die akzeptieren statt verurteilen, echte Wendepunkte schaffen. In unserer Episode ordnen wir ein, warum „Verflucht normal“ gerade für ein breites Publikum funktioniert, welche Figurenkonstellationen tragen und wie der Film Aufklärung mit emotionaler Erzählkraft verbindet. Wenn du Filmtipps für 2026 suchst, liefert dir diese Folge gleich zwei Perspektiven: einmal Genre-Spannung mit Horror-Thriller-Vibes („Obsession“) und einmal ein inspirierendes, lebensnahes Biopic („Verflucht normal“). Beide Filme stehen für starkes Kino, aber mit völlig unterschiedlicher Tonalität – und genau das macht den Doppelpack für unsere Podcast-Episode so hörenswert.

We reviewed the big movie of the weekend, the Michael Jackson biopic "Michael," on Tuesday. But there are plenty of other new releases as we await the summer crush. Here's what we discussed in the latest episode of our Breakfast All Day podcast: OVER YOUR DEAD BODY. Samara Weaving and Jason Segel play a miserable married couple who go on a weekend getaway to work on their relationship -- or so they've told each other. Timothy Olyphant and Juliette Lewis co-star in this twisty action comedy from director Jorma Taccone ("Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping"). In theaters. I SWEAR. Robert Aramayo was the surprise best actor winner at the BAFTAs this year for his portrayal of John Davidson, a Scottish man with Tourette syndrome. Writer-director Kirk Jones' film is formulaic in its depiction of adversity, but its heart is in the right place. Maxine Peake, Shirley Henderson and Scott Ellis Watson co-star. In theaters. MOVIE NEWS LIVE! Always a lot to talk about, including "Michael" reactions, early footage of "The Mandalorian & Grogu," casting on Alex Garland's "Elden Ring" movie and more. We won't be here next Friday in solidarity with a nationwide labor strike, but come back on May 8. Thanks for sharing some of your weekend with us!

Kirk Jones' debut film is a sentimental dark comedy of two elderly scamps, played by Ian Bannen and David Kelly, who try to squeeze a few more days of life from deceased fishermen Ned Devine, so they can claim his lottery winnings. Settle in, and enjoy the fruity soaps.

"I Swear" is a 2025 British biographical drama film directed, written, and produced by Kirk Jones. It is based on the true life story of John Davidson, a Scottish man with severe Tourette syndrome who was the subject of the 1989 television documentary "John's Not Mad." The film stars Robert Aramayo as Davidson, alongside Maxine Peake, Shirley Henderson, and Peter Mullan in supporting roles, with Scott Ellis Watson making his acting debut as a young Davidson. The film premiered at the 2025 Toronto International Film Festival, where it received universal acclaim from critics, who praised the performances of Aramayo and Mullan. The film received five nominations at the 79th British Academy Film Awards, winning two for Best Actor in a Leading Role for Aramayo and Best Casting. Aramayo was kind enough to spend some time talking with us about his work and experience making the film, which you can listen to below. Please be sure to check out the film, which will open in US theaters on April 24th from Sony Pictures Classics. Thank you, and enjoy! Check out more on NextBestPicture.com Please subscribe on...

Writer/director Cherien Dabis joins Flick to discuss the making of her latest film All That's Left of You, a multi-generational portrait of a Palestinian family reckoning with the devastating impact of displacement and violence from the Nakba to the present day. Flick is joined by Anthony Carew and Vyshnavee Wijekumar to discuss Riz Ahmed's surreal industry satire Bait, and Kirk Jones's BAFTA-winning biopic I Swear.

British newcomer Robert Aramayo was the talk of this year's BAFTA awards after he walked away with the Best Actor victory. The leading role that saw him beat out Leonardo DiCaprio, Timothee Chalamet, and Michael B. Jordan was his depiction of Scottish Tourette's campaigner John Davidson in I Swear. Robert Aramayo and director Kirk Jones explained why it was important to tell Davidson's story in the most authentic way. "I think it was a shared responsibility, really. We all felt that we wanted to make a good, authentic version of his life." LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

SPOILER REVIEW van Kirk Jones' I Swear. De verrassende winnaar van 2 BAFTA's, en misschien wel een kanshebber voor de Oscars van volgend jaar? Enjoy! Redactie: Don Zwaaneveld Bedankt voor het luisteren!Volg @dononfilm op Instagram & Letterboxd en op de Award Expert app voor de meest actuele Oscar voorspellingen. 

De Michel Delage, d'Vesna Andonovic an d'Valerija Berdi beschwätzen: "I swear" (Kirk Jones), "La Danse des renards" (Valéry Carnoy), "Lumière, l'aventure continue" (Thierry Frémaux) an "How to make a killing" (John Patton Ford).

He grabbed all the headlines at the Baftas for all the wrong reasons. Imagine what it was like to grow up with the neurological disorder, Tourette Syndrome, at a time when very little was known about it. That was the experience of Scotsman, John Davidson in the 1980s. Tourettes causes tics - uncontrollable and repetitive movements and vocalisations, like obscene gestures or swearing. John's story - one of both early rejection - and eventual acceptance - forms the basis for the biopic I Swear. Directed by Kirk Jones, it was nominated for five BAFTAs including Outstanding British Film and won for Leading Actor and Casting. It also captured headlines when John experienced a racially offensive verbal tic during the ceremony which was broadcast by the BBC. Kirk talks to Mihingarangi Forbes about the challenges of bringing John's story to the screen.

With three BAFTAs to its name, the film I Swear has added awards acclaim to its critical and commercial success. The real-life story of John Davidson OBE was brought to the screen by writer/director Kirk Jones, and the story of how he got the film made in the first place remains extraordinary.Reflecting on I Swear following its BAFTA success - with two awards alone for leading man Robert Aramayo - Kirk joins Simon Brew to look back on the last two years. And there's a hint of what's ahead, too...

Kirk Jones's biographical drama based on the true life story of John Davidson, the man who taught Britain about Tourette Syndrome, is currently no 1 in the Netflix UK charts. It bagged lead actor Robert Aramayo the best actor gong at the recent Baftas, an awards ceremony that led to the film having a fourth act no one was expecting.  Hannah picked it as her next Flicking choice waaaay before any of that occurred. She, Yosra and Mick chat about this frank, powerful, gut-wrenching and funny account of a man still bringing much-needed awareness to a still misunderstood condition.  Learn more about your ad choices.

This series of episodes grew out of our January series on year-round local food, in which Stewart from Cedar Valley Permaculture suggested we can meaningfully shift our food system by growing more of our own food. So how are people making this happen? How are people already coming together to grow both food and new food systems? Throughout this series, we'll look at a couple helpful Midwestern stories — one in Carbondale, Illinois and one in Ann Arbor, Michigan. Together, they reveal a breadth of approaches to community gardening that have taught me a heck of a lot and that I hope will inspire you. This episode, we're in conversation with Kirk Jones of Project Grow. Partisan Gardens - Carbondale Spring: http://www.partisangardens.org/podcast/december-2020-carbondale-spring/

Episode 120 - For ages people have been drawn to Niagara Falls, the most famous group of waterfalls in North America, and maybe the world. As many as 20 million people per year visit to view the awesome power of nature as tens of millions of liters of water spectacularly pour over the falls every minute. There have been many accidental deaths, but there have been many drawn to the torrents for other darker reasons. Some come to end their own lives and others, the daredevils, to try to prove their ingenuity and courage can beat the falls. Some have failed in the attempt. NOTE: There will be talk of suicide in this episode.

Back after a hiatus, we delve further into Ben Wheatley's oeuvre, with his 2013 historical horror A FIELD IN ENGLAND. Our reviews are mixed, but then we do get into some very interesting discussions about genre collisions, social structure, and whether or not Ben Wheatley will be a success as a blockbuster Hollywood director with his…interesting use of generic and visual ideas! Next Week Our final Ben Wheatley film is his latest offering, FREE FIRE (2017), available here: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Free-Fire-Sharlto-Copley/dp/B06XXNTJ4V.

While we're recommending books, this is a good introduction to one of the many genres with which Wheatley engages in this film: https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=1VGsrJEdnfEC&printsec=frontcover&dq=giallo+horror&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwj0rLSXk_jbAhUJa8AKHWLED-kQ6AEILzAB#v=onepage&q=giallo%20horror&f=false. This is a good article on the presentation of psychedelia on film: http://realitysandwich.com/318989/psychedelia-in-the-movies. Sam mentions Rabelais and ‘the world turned upside down'; Bakhtin's take on Rabelais is quite old, but still very good: https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=SkswFyhqRIMC&pg=PA370&lpg=PA370&dq=rabelais+the+world+turned+upside+down&source=bl&ots=wgwpACfQeE&sig=kjdL0t4B9x3Cw86XlgKCwgmf-xM&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjz4J_Zk_jbAhUiDsAKHWNACAYQ6AEIJzAA#v=onepage&q=rabelais%20the%20world%20turned%20upside%20down&f=false. Looking for more on the concept, though, I found information about a ballad called ‘The World Turned Upside Down' that was a direct political response to Parliament's restrictive policies about freedom of expression and celebration — so this is probably what O'Neil is talking about: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_World_Turned_Upside_Down. Finally, to end on a cheery note, this is an introduction to a book on death, purgatory, and other upbeat topics: http://www.oxfordbibliographies.com/view/document/obo-9780195399301/obo-9780195399301-0083.xml.

This is the Horror Pod Class!  Welcome back for another lively discussion, this time focusing on the Purge franchise from Blumhouse.  We talk a lot about the first movie, touch on the second and third, and finally wind up speculating on what the 4th installment will have in store for us.  Stay tuned and keep your heads down, all crime is legal for the next 12 hours (including insider trading). Show Notes: 1:45- Your hosts of the Horror Pod Class have started a couple of Facebook groups!  Head on over to the official Horror Pod Class group and join for continued over analysis of your favorite genre films.  If you love short horror fiction, you can also join our Short Horror Fiction Discussion group where you can get links to some awesome free short horror content and connect with others that like short horror literature.   2:45-  Tyler and Mike both have a soft spot for academic literature that discusses the horror genre.  We were lucky enough to get an advance copy of Sleeping With the Lights On by Darryl Jones from Oxford University Press.   3:15-  Mike just finished reading Aetherchrist by Kirk Jones from Apex books and will have a review at Signal Horizon up shortly.  Next on the list is The Atrocities by Jeremy Shipp. 5:00-  Looking for some free fiction out there?  Check out Shirley Jackson's the lottery.  Its kind of like The Purge, maybe it is Purge adjacent. Tyler is a big fan of Borges and you can get a hold of a lot of his awesome, weird, and wonderful works over at Project Gutenberg.   Similar Fiction that is not free, but totally worth your while: Similar Fiction- Fritz Leiber’s America the Beautiful, Stephen King's The Long Walk, Usula Le Guin's The Ones who Walk Away from Omelas, That one Episode of Star Trek that was based on that one episode of the Twilight Zone, and of course the Rick and Morty Episode that was all about The Purge.  Tyler doesn't watch Rick and Morty, boo send him some hate mail. 27:00- Catharsis Theory is not particularly good science.  If you want to read more and have access to the American Psychological Bulletin, check out Miller, T. Q., Smith, T. W., Turner, C. W., Guijarro, M. L., & Hallet, A. J. (1996). A meta-analytic review of research on hostility and physical health. Psychological Bulletin, 119, 322–348. 28:30-  Tyler talks about "A Modest Proposal," when in actuality we all know he just wants to eat poor people.  Want to read it for free?  Pick your format over at Project Gutenberg.   29:30-  Here is some further reading about the Purge regarding race and class.  Some stuff over at the Huff Post and a really clickbaity article from Complex.com. 32:00- Mike talks tax reform and TurboTax, which is actually a way more interesting topic than you might think.  Check out this Planet Money Podcast all about it. 35:15- The Mortgage Interest deduction costs about as much as the SNAP program (food stamps).  Proof from Pew Research and Wikipedia.  If you own a house and deduct the interest from your mortgage from your taxes you can't say the government doesn't give you anything. 36:00-  Tyler talks Malthus.  37:30- Fritz Haber is the guy whose name that Mike can't remember.  He invented the fertilizer that saved the world from catastrophe and then weaponized chlorine gas during WWI, leading to tens of thousands of deaths.  His wife was so distraught that she was married to an unabashed war criminal that she committed suicide.  Maybe, the reasoning isn't exactly clear historically.   Thanks for joining us for another episode of The Horror Pod Class!  Your homework for next week is to watch Mr. Jones on Shudder.com.  You can get a 30 day trial by entering the promo code "SIGNAL".

By Sue Reece, Radio Adelaide secrets you know you mustn’t share them so heavy you don’t know how to carry them hide them hide them deep inside Welcome to the world of Multiple Personalities, or ‘multiples’ for short. You may have heard of this as Dissociative Identity Disorder. The world of I, the Many; We, the One is often a world of secrecy, rejection, and the burden of far too many thrillers where the serial killer turns out to be the hidden personality of someone who didn’t know they were multiple. Even from mental health professionals, misdiagnosis, confusion, and assumptions that people are ‘making things up for attention’ are painfully common. This is a world close to me, as one of the voices in this documentary belongs to my daughter, and the other participants are members of the DI, an international network she founded. When I asked the network what they would like people to know about multiples, I was given many answers, all of them wanting to go beyond the fears, myths, and stigma. Here is a rare opportunity to hear from 5 different people about their personal experiences with multiplicity. Please be advised that the content you're about to hear contains descriptions of mental illness, the effects of abuse, and references to suicide, which some listeners may find distressing. I’d like to thank the five who contributed their stories, using their single public name for each person with multiple selves. Some share more through websites, while others requested anonymity. Ruth, Samira Claire, Jade, Tyrone, Sarah K Reece. Thank you to those who lent their voices as voice-actors, Winston Kay, Jennifer Fane & Kirk Jones. Thank you to Keith Gratton for technical advice and assistance. Original music composed by Dave Reece. To learn more about multiplicity visit The Dissociative Initiative. If any content has caused distress to you, please call Lifeline, on 131114 or visit lifeline.org.au.
